Now, WHY did Trump win?

[Darth]

This has the gears turning. Let's not forget, in the next 4 years, this election WAS BLATANTLY RIGGED!

So why did Trump win?

They thought they had it in the bag, and didn't rig it enough?

Hillary got tired/too ill to follow through?

If she won, they knew the sheep would strip off the wool and viva la revolution? (<-- I think this one TBH)

Something is coming up to damage the presidency?

Why did Trump win?

 

[Bananabandit]

Too much heat on Hillary rigging it that they ciuldnt push too hard. Just look at all the ones who got caught.

 

[Podmonkey]

Simple, Democratic support was concentrated in costal urban areas. Trump support was spread out and thus got more electoral votes. We've had 8 years of democrats. People wanted a change.

 

[ProgSpear]

Soros has heavily hedged the dollar, and now when he tells Yellen to pull the plug, Trump is the fall guy, not Obama.

Saw a petition thing where they want to eliminate that.

 

[Mosinitis]

Trump became a champion for the ignored masses and listened to their legitimate grievances. That's what representative democracy should be.

 

[meketrefe]

I think Ben Carson described this the best:

"As I've said all along, this is not about Democrats and Republicans; this is about we the people versus the political elites."

 

[RDN]

I voted GOP across the board. But I didn't think Trump had a chance. I was brain washed by Liberal Media like most SHEEPOLE.
Why did Trump win?
1 - American voters are smarter than most give them credit.
2 - Voter are tired of the poll Bull#@$ht
3 - Hillary took women voters for granted
4 - Never F-with gun owners and our 2nd Amend. rights !!!!

 

[Darth]

The media clearly WAY overplayed their hand. Their bias was too blatant.

Next time at least have one network leaning right instead of all of them 100%, astonishingly, biased.

 

[Catskillkid]

So @Darth just to be clear, you're thinking that the NWO types allowed Trump the win but will ultimately infiltrate him and then keep their agenda going? I'm not asking this to criticize, I've actually been thinking about this myself.

I have no idea.

 

[Marine Cpl]

The blatant media bias I believe is the main reason as Darth said. I also think people are tired of political correctness with canned responses and although Trump is a multibillionaire, he is seen as a Regular Joe by the public.

 

[togmaster]

A vote for Trump was like giving the middle finger to the way Washington worked. People were fed up with both parties and wanted an outsider.

 

[Marine Cpl]

Now if he exposes something substantial like corruption on National Television, he would be locked in for another 4 years.

That's what the people elected him for.

 

[Uninformed and Compliant]

There were many smaller reasons, but one thing in common - Voting map reveals strong polarization between super-metro /urban ("Enlightened / Entitled for HRC") vs everywhere else ("Toothless Hillbilly for Not Hillary").

While not necessarily realized, and not deliberate, it was a mass rejection of the Progressive vision.




From Podesta's mail dump:

 

[Frankly]

The media and the ignorant masses are spinning that Hillary lost because of sexism and racism.

Never mind that she never actually talked about any issues or had ideas. That what she stood for was a continuation of failure and coddling. That she had no idea what to do about the economy or terrorism except to threaten to start a war with the largest nuclear power in the world... Or that she is criminally corrupt and a traitor. Or that all she did was smear Trump then act all holier than thou... etc.

We really need a few rich Trump supporters to buy a cable network, major newspaper, more websites and give us some good outlets.

 

[holdover]

If Trump wants to help this country the first thing he needs to do is declare that George Soros is an enemy of the people of the United States and terminate him , with extreme prejudice.

Better. Have the FCC require FULL la carte channel selection at price-points that match the bundles.

People would drop all CNN, MSNBC, ESPN properties in a heartbeat, and those pricks would fold up in a day.

No. The NWO had no idea that Trump was going to win. Just like they had no idea about the results of Brexit. These two events have set the NWO back about 30 years. They have no clue how to deal with it at this point. IMHO, while this will set them back, I don't think it will last very long. Look for something to happen between now and 1/20/17. If nothing happens, then we will have some time to get stuff done that needs to get done..like getting the SCOTUS in order to protect our 2nd Amendment rights..

Now is not the time for compromise. We didn't elect trump to wave the white flag and reach across the aisle. The progressives would never cut us slack. Their agenda come first to them all the time. If the shoe was on the other foot and anti Christ won they would be spiking the football and ram their agenda at every opportunity.

We elected trump to be a wrecking ball to the DC elite status quo. I want him to attack and take no prisoners. Blow it up.

Bring in special prosecutors to go after the hillary, soros, Clinton foundation types. Destroy corruption. Respect the constitution. Drain the swamp. Fight back against the media. Pull the credentials of "troublemakers/ propaganda spewers masquerading as journalists" if needed to not let them get out of line and to keep them honest.

Throw the "never trumpers" under the bus. Let them rot. Remind everyone where they stand. Give positions of power to honest people.

Put America first.

This EXACTLY! Having what must be an identical discussion with a group of folks right now. One guy saying it's time for "diplomacy" and for "cooler heads to prevail." "Being extreme is a sign of insecurity."

Eff him - we had to take 8 years of crap rammed down our throats with no help from a feckless GOP. When they had the balls to stand up oblamer took out his pen and phone to do what he wanted. Sorry but plain vanilla, moderate solutions will do nothing to get us out of the incredibly deep hole we're in. Raise the Jolly Roger and take no prisoners.

I don't think any of this will happen, and here's why. We have too damn much work to do. Just getting our health care system and immigration system operating to stop the bleeding will be a major undertaking.. I'm all for bringing people to justice, but, I think that should wait till we have the more important stuff taken care of..

Yeah that has been discussed on Breitbart so that goes right to Steve Bannon, Trump's campaign CEO. He is also ambitious and rich and wants to beat the snot out of the mainstream media so siccing our allied legislators onto the big cable monopolies is job one.

I'd love a Breitbart type channel but even better, buy an existing channel and clean house, hire Hannity and Coulter and more.... broadcast 3-Gun matches all night long, etc.

Dump any media company stocks, Time Warner should plummet.

I wonder if the dumbasses at the NFL will now understand why their attendance is down?

 

[Blimey]

The election itself, the casting of votes and counting, was not rigged. It was always the process.

The dems lost because they nominated the only person in their party who could lose to trump. They ignored the warning signs from bernie, annoited her and had to cheat the process to do it. They didn't care. The party elite on the democratic side were there for her and themselves and enjoy patting themselves on the back for a job well done. Nobody even held them accountable. Clinton news just one example of many ignored her ills and focused on trump. It's why the butthurt today is so profound at huffpo and others. They are not equipped to handle it.

This was a referendum on hillary. On the illegitimate FBI. On the MSM. On people who think that people like me give two shits if beyonce tells me to support her candidate. On people who don't give a damn what a hollywood a-lister thinks I should do with my vote. On people who are sick of having their views mocked and ridiculed mercilessly on comedy central. But most importantly by people who just don't like the way the country is going and saw in her a personification of that.

They will learn nothing from this, of course.

 

[dwa12479]

Honestly, I think that the establishment was finally bitch slapped back to reality by "We The People...". America is tired of the same dynasty of political elites getting filthy rich by selling off the US at the expense of us working stiffs. The great thing about Trump is that he's already a billionaire and is beholden to no one. Not the Saudis or the Clinton Foundation or China or anyone else. He has free reign to run the country the way he thinks it should be run, and I hope like hell that he does run this country like one of his businesses. (Except for the Taj Mahal of course....lol) I have been of the mindset of "Im not voting FOR Trump, I'm voting AGAINST Hillary" to this point, but I'm genuinely excited for our future now that the Hildabeast has been vanquished.

We own it all. House, senate, executive and soon to be scotus

No reason we can't do it all

dont get your hopes up. these majority's in the house and senate are the same spineless rino's who rubber stamped obama's agenda.

 

[Mk44]

People are fed up with the BS that the Obama's, bushes & Clinton's were shoveling and wanted a change.
